<div><b><u>Abstract: </u></b></div>
<div>Stokesian particulate flows describe the hydrodynamics of rigid or deformable particles in the zero Reynolds number regime. Due to highly nonlinear fluid-structure interaction dynamics, moving interfaces, and multiple scales, numerical simulations of such
flows are challenging and expensive. I will present our machine-learning-augmented reduced model[1] for fast simulations of such flows. Besides, I will show how the reduced model enables us study optimal microfluidic device design for dense suspensions of
deformable particles.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Our goal is to design a deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) device to sort same-size biological cells by their deformability, in particular to sort red blood cells (RBCs) by their viscosity contrast between the fluid in the interior and the exterior
of the cells. ADLD device optimized for efficient cell sorting enables rapid medical diagnoses of several diseases such as malaria since infected cells are stiffer than their healthy counterparts. In this context, I will first describe an integral equation
formulation[2] that delivers optimal complexity solvers for this type of problems. Despite its excellent theoretical properties, our integral equation solver remains prohibitively expensive for optimization and uncertainty quantification. I will then summarize
our efforts to reduce the computational costs, starting from low-resolution discretization, domain truncation, and model reduction.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Model reduction is used to accelerate the action of specific and very expensive nonlinear operators. The final scheme blends ultra low-resolution solvers (who on their own can-not resolve the flow), several regression neural networks, and an operator time-stepping
scheme, which we introduced to specifically enable the use of surrogate models. We have used our methodology successfully for flows that are completely different from the flows in the training dataset. This is a joint work with George Biros at the University
of Texas at Austin.<br>
